Introduction

Steiger Wildcat III ST-210 Four-Wheel Drive Tractor

The Steiger Wildcat III ST-210 is a heavy-duty four-wheel drive tractor produced between 1976 and 1980 in Fargo, North Dakota, USA. Part of the manufacturer's articulated range, this model was designed to provide significant tractive power for large-scale agricultural operations.

Engine and Performance

The tractor is powered by a liquid-cooled V-8 engine with a displacement of 10.4 liters (636 cubic inches). It utilizes a direct injection fuel system to achieve 210 horsepower (156.6 kW). The engine produces a maximum torque of 485 lb-ft (657.7 Nm) at 1400 RPM, providing the necessary low-end pulling force for heavy tillage and field work.

Transmission and Drivetrain

Power is delivered through a Spicer SST 1010 constant mesh transmission, offering 10 forward and 2 reverse gears. The machine features an articulated power steering system, allowing for maneuvering the large chassis, and utilizes planetary final drives to manage the high torque output to the wheels.

Hydraulics and Hitch

The hydraulic system is of the open-center type, operating at a pressure of 2250 psi (155.1 bar). The pump provides a flow rate of 21.7 gpm (82.1 lpm), with 20 gpm available at the selective control valves (SCV). The tractor is equipped with a Category III rear hitch capable of lifting 9,500 lbs (4,309 kg).

Operator Environment and Dimensions

The Wildcat III ST-210 features the Safari Cab as standard, which includes air conditioning to enhance operator comfort during long field operations. The tractor has a wheelbase of 118 inches (299 cm) and a shipping weight of 18,000 lbs (8,164 kg), which can reach a maximum weight of 23,000 lbs (10,432 kg) depending on ballasting and configuration.

Conclusion

The Steiger Wildcat III ST-210 is a specialized machine tailored for heavy traction tasks. Its robust V-8 engine, articulated steering, and high-capacity hydraulic system make it a suitable choice for large-acreage farming where significant drawbar power and reliability are required.
